75th Anniversary of the Disappearance of Amelia Earhart

This month marks the 75th anniversary of the disappearance of Amelia Earhart [9].  The Earhart Project [10]is leading an expedition on the disappearance on Nikumaroro Island in the Republic of Kiribati.  They will be doing testing and looking for clues.  We have many books on Amelia [11], so you might want to sharpen your memory on her life and her dreams of flying.  Get ready for some news coming soon from The Earhart Project, as they begin their adventures on July 2, 2012!

Go Golfing!

Bloomfield Township Public Library has a vast selection of golf books [12] and instructional DVDs [13].  Check out these great resources first before taking expensive lessons.  Tips from the pro's are always helpful!  Learn the proper swing, the perfect grip, and how to fix a divot!  We also have subscriptions to Golf Digest [14] and Golf Magazine [15].  Let the Library help you learn a whole new sport or improve the game you have been playing a lifetime!

Ain't Misbehavin - Music from the 30's and 40's
